Well, she could be like a song

The kind, that with time, always comes back on

But something tells me she's gone

There's no chords, there's no rhymes, there's no singing along

I pushed her just a little too far for a little too long

It's a little too late for me to keep her from

Highways and byways that'll take her anywhere but my way

There's so many ways she could say goodbye

Railways and runways, from the way she was looking, I'm afraid that

Whatever the way, it's gonna be one way this time

Well, she was like my guitar

Always waiting around just to be in my arms

But you can't play with a heart

Should've never have left her alone in the dark

I couldn't see it back then, ah, but look at her now

You can't pick it back up once it's headed down

Highways and byways that'll take her anywhere but my way

There's so many ways she could say goodbye

Railways and runways, from the way she was looking, I'm afraid that

Whatever the way, it's gonna be one way this time

I pushed her just a little too far for a little too long

And gave her little choice but to get on

Highways and byways that'll take her anywhere but my way

There's so many ways she could say goodbye

Railways and runways, from the way she was looking, I'm afraid that

Whatever the way, it's gonna be one way this time

Whatever the way, it's gonna be one way this time
